    Surface really needs to be pretty good for a wrap to work.

    Might get away with a matt black rat-look?

    Combine the wrap and the rat-look: How about a rusty, patina’d steel wrap for the complete double bluff?

    I like that!

    Surface irregularities wouldn't matter.

    Actually, I found a brushed ally wrap, so you could look like one of those German-car lessees who could only afford the primer coat with the black wheels:

    Indeed - I was thinking badly-neglected Caterham (or naked NSX) but DeLorean is more apposite!
